Nadolol "I have been using Corgard for many years, and my resting heart rate, which without the medicine is over 100, but with it is a steady 60-65. Plus, I have AF (Atrial Fibrillation), and this has lessened the frequency and length of attacks."

"Have had SVT episodes for over 35 years. In 1998, my BP jumped up suddenly, so I was prescribed 20 mg Nadolol. Worked great on lowering my BP. I have been in the ER several times over the years with SVT attacks, had to have my heart reset a couple of times. When the racing kicks in, I can bring it back down with two or three 40 mg tablets and avoid the hospital. Helps anxiety and headaches for me as well. Have been on other BP meds that did nothing, but Nadolol is a special med with my body..."

"I have had palpitations for 18 years - it affected my life so badly that I eventually became agoraphobic for several years. I could do very little in the way of activity without having episodes. I was started out at 20 mg a day and gradually worked my way up to 80 mg, but the 80 mg caused me problems. So I settled in at 40 mg a day for many years until a few years ago. I, for some reason, was having increased episodes in longer durations - at one point having continuous palpitations for 5 hours straight. Not for the faint of heart. I ended up increasing my dosage to 60 mg a day with no problems. 40 mg and then 12 hours later 20 mg. It seems to help and has also lessened the impact of those beats that feel like your heart is jumping out of your chest."

Nadolol "I live in Kazakhstan, and I have been using Corgard for 8 years. I have a disease called catecholaminergic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). And Corgard really works. It has the lowest side effects. Unfortunately, it isn't registered in our country. I have to buy it in Russia and other countries. Thanks to the distributors. But as a wish, it would be great to register Corgard in our country."

Nadolol "Corgard is a life-saving medication for me. A few years ago, I had to visit the ER, my heart was beating 200 bpm, and my blood pressure was 200/125. They did an EKG and gave me a heavy dose, 100 mg of Corgard, and within 5 minutes, everything was normal."

"I’ve been on Nadolol since 2010. I have CPVT. I was originally on 120 mg per day, and that did make me tired. In 2014, I had the LCSD procedure, and the doctor added Flecainide and reduced Nadolol to 20 mg per day. I started getting horrible leg cramps at night and learned that it was because of the reduction in Nadolol dose. The doctor had me bump it up to 40 mg per day, and my leg cramps went away. I do not seem to have any side effects from Nadolol or Flecainide."
